EXPECT NATIONWIDE BANK STRIKE ON 2ND DECEMBER ACCORDING TO A LEADING BANK UNION

Bank employees will observe a country-wide strike on December 2, a leading union said on Saturday.

All-India Bank Employees Association (AIBEA) general secretary C.H. Venkatchalam said the strike call was to press its demand to address issues like de-linking associate banks from the SBI and extending compassionate appointments according to government guidelines.

Two-day strike

Separately, the State Sector Bank Employees Association (SSBEA) has also given a call for strike on two days (December 1 and 2) in SBI’s associate banks, the association’s chairman Mahesh Mishra said. SSBEA may go for an indefinite strike in associate banks, to be followed by an indefinite stir by AIBEA in all banks by the end of December if their demands were not conceded, Mr. Mishra warned.
